When I signed up to model gig, i wasn't impressed and have never gotten anything from them as far as work is concerned.. but today, out of boredom, i went there and saw these red letters that sais "activate zed book"
I went "huh?" and clicked it, and i got this:

That's actually how the famous modeling site and the alleged scam, once "Options Talent" and then "Transcontinental Talent" then "Wilhelmina Scouting Network" (not too sure bout the last one... I quit befor they changed names again) presented their models' portfolio... Does this website charge models?  Ever since this options talent scandal, I am pretty skeptical about modeling sites now...especially those that resemble options talent

I've never heard of options talent, but when I got a few e-mails saying i should join modelgig, i thought i'd at least check it out, you know?
It seemed a bit shady to me, but it was free, so i figured, the hell with it- why not?
lol... like i said, i've yet to get anything from them, but the port design they have is really cool!

If you are familiar with flash, here is how to make the page flipping effect.

and to modelgig's defense, they seem very reliable from a photographer's point of view. I hired a couple of models through them sometime ago.

They booked a model for me that was difficult to get a hold of.
They also gave me a refund on a model that showed up at the shoot who looked nothing like the pics in her portfolio.

You're lucky you're hot, because websites that make noise without me specifically asking for it get closed with the quickness.

The best part is that even though so many guys are looking at it, the pages don't stick to each other.

You can do this by using FlipAlbumPro, or one of the canned flash scripts available for free or sale on several websites...
I believe ZINIO magazine reader also uses something like that...
